Praise for Let The Sun Shine In
Poetry began in the oral tradition and Rhea Carmon’s work reminds of the power of spoken word reunited with literary measures. Her poetry is powerfully loving and unafraid to tell it like it is. Resonant long lines offer “an open lament for your closed mind.” Read these poems aloud and the personal skies will clear. Rhea Carmon’s songs extend an invitation to hope: “Come In!”
